It's a very simple job and I can get you my cost on the part since they're pretty proud of those things at the dealership. I wouldnt use an aftermarket one either.
Ill give you a call after the holidays and see whats up. If we could get away with just a solenoid rebuild that would be great. Id like for this thing to last her 3 more years, thats only 25K more miles since she doesnt do a whole lot of driving and when I get me a new crew cab some time next year we'll take my vehicle more often.

If I can get the trans lined out, a tune and a K&N filter is probably all Ill do. Id be tempted to do the exhaust and she even likes the sound of aftermarket exhausts but its kinda nice to be quiet on long trips and with a 3 month old son Id rather not have something too intrusive.

I really think Id like to get the 5PSI electric supercharger, I bet that thing works awesome

Man $200 for a 5psi blower, Magnuson better watch out selling those high priced kits. This little gem might put them out of business.
